"On behalf of the Toronto Blue Jays, I would like to congratulate Brandy, Braden, Ryan, and the entire Halladay family, on the induction of their beloved husband, father, son, and brother, Roy Halladay, into the National Baseball Hall of Fame. While this weekend’s celebration is bittersweet for anyone whose life was touched by Roy, we are proud to join in the recognition of his exceptional career and contributions to the game of baseball. There has seldom been a player to step on the mound with the passion and grace that Roy demonstrated, and his incredible legacy will now be forever enshrined in Cooperstown, through this monumental and well-deserved honour.”

Mark Shapiro, President & CEO, Toronto Blue Jays
